What a great episode, and a more than worthy finish to the original Columbo series. It is slickly filmed, with beautiful locations, and the music is both lilting and atmospheric. The writing is clever and witty, the scenes between Columbo and Devlin are plentiful and are among my favourites of the entire series(which includes the likes of the scene in Identity Crisis with Columbo and Patrick McGoohan's Nelson Brenner in Brenner's house with Madama Butterfly playing in the background), and the story is tightly plotted and completely diverting. The support cast are good, if nothing extraordinary, but it is the performances and rapport of the leads that make it work. Peter Falk is brilliant as Columbo, and Clive Revill gives a jovial and charming performance as Devlin, while there are a few moments of aggression I actually did find Devlin somewhat likable. In conclusion, a great episode that is a must watch for Falk and Revill. 9/10 Bethany Cox
